Have you ever been super nervous at the first coffee break of a conference because of networking? You are not alone with it! Check out how to survive conferences in my last post at @FEBSnews!

[Many Minds podcast @ManyMindsPod]

New episode!! 📣📣

A chat w/ philosopher Tim Bayne about tests for consciousness ("C-tests").

Brain organoids, chatbots, insects, neonates—opinion varies on whether these entities are (or might soon become) conscious. But how will we know?

What's a (relatively neglected) political issue that you think is at least 10 times more important than most other issues that most people seem to think are important?

(Bonus credit for linking to a good introduction to your pet issue...)

I try to keep it updated, please let me know if you know of any changes/additions

PS fun fact: the '3 Body Problem' novel (published in 2008, English translation 2014) actually inspired Peter Todd and I to write this journal paper about the evolutionary psychology of extraterrestrial intelligence, and why 'active messaging' to ETIs (as Ye Wenjie did) is one of the worst ideas in the history of bad ideas.

Climate change, mental health & reproductive decision-making: "13 studies included, conducted 2012-22 primarily in Global North. Climate change concerns were associated w/ less positive attitudes towards reproduction & a desire for fewer children or none" https://t.co/CrBTzstHSq

"Research institutions are locked into high-carbon travel patterns and academics remain high emitters. By refusing to fly, @GGrimalda is showing leadership at a moment when deep and rapid changes are required. Such behaviour should be encouraged."

[PTNCE @ptnce]

Judit Mokos tells us about how the potential of unequal loss in climate game kills trust and causes sinking together. ☠️ @vackorfa

the title came from me, I hope it's catchy enough to make you read it.

[judit.mokos @vackorfa]

I just started a new adventure at @ENL_Hungary in the team of @vmullerHUN. I'm gonna study virus evolution and epidemiology, mainly HIV, flu, and covid. I hope our results will spread faster than covid. ;)

Thanks to the wonderful organizers of #ISHE2022 creating a welcoming environment and great social programs, and all the speaker to make the conference inspiring. See you on the next ISHE!

[judit.mokos @vackorfa]

Very diverse topics at #ishe2022, from evolution of understanding emotions on faces, to why people living in a well maintained environment are less stressed.

[judit.mokos @vackorfa]

Help #AcademicTwitter - what's your opinion on changing topics after your PhD and joining a group that works on a totally different topic? Is it a good practice to change topics sometimes, or it's better to stick to one topic?

[judit.mokos @vackorfa]

See you at #ISHE2022 @ISHE_society! If you want to know how altruism makes you sexy check out my talk.
